Vestil Manufacturing PRDC-42 Pallet Rack Drum Cradle

Product Description

The VESTIL MANUFACTURING PRDC-42 is a pallet rack drum cradle designed to convert a standard 42-inch-depth pallet rack into a horizontal drum storage and handling station. Built from industrial-grade steel with a powder-coat finish in blue, this cradle supports safe horizontal drum positioning and includes rollers that allow manual drum rotation without removing the drum from the rack. Drum angle is adjustable via height-adjustment bolts, giving technicians and warehouse crews the ability to fine-tune positioning for dispensing or storage applications. It weighs 35 pounds and ships as a single unit.

This cradle is intended for use in industrial, warehouse, and manufacturing environments where drums need to be stored or dispensed horizontally on existing pallet rack infrastructure. It fits standard 42-inch-depth pallet rack systems and is compatible with both box beams and step beams, making it adaptable to a wide range of existing rack configurations without requiring additional hardware modifications. Typical installers include maintenance technicians, warehouse managers, and material handling crews setting up chemical, lubricant, or fluid storage systems.

Verify beam capacity ratings against the combined weight of the cradle and loaded drum before placing into service. Follow applicable OSHA and ANSI MH16.1 rack safety guidelines during installation and use.
